That was the approach i was taking when ... ( i only need 512 bytes after MBR, what could possibly go wrong?!) I destroyed some memorabilia on that flash. Oh well; no big loss.
for some reason setting nvram='#u/usb/ep6.0/data" nvroff=513 (is it 0 or 1 origin?) nvrlen=512 didn't work. i guessed it might have been the fact that usbd started usb/disk; i was getting device busy.
